- Summary
- The Arovia Splay is a unique 2-in-1 portable display and projector that folds down to the size of a large headphone case yet delivers a bright, 1080p image on a 24.5-inch wrinkle-resistant screen or up to an 80-inch projection. Built for versatility, it’s lightweight, rugged, and quick to set up, making it ideal for everything from business presentations and trade shows to camping trips and outdoor movie nights. While its built-in speakers lack bass and picture controls are limited, its portability, brightness, and ability to perform in bright environments make it a compelling choice for anyone who needs big-screen visuals on the go.
Arovia’s "Splay" is a clever 2-in-1 portable display and ultra-short throw projector that packs a 24.5-inch wrinkle-resistant screen — or up to an 80-inch front-projected image — into a package about the size of an over-ear headphone case. Weighing just 2.5 lbs, it’s built for mobility, with a quick setup that works just as well in a brightly lit room as it does at an outdoor movie night. Connectivity is simple, with HDMI, USB-C, and USB ports supporting laptops, streaming sticks, and mobile devices, while a patented nanomaterial screen resists wrinkles and ambient light glare. Brightness, portability, and versatility are where Splay really shines, making it ideal for campers, trainers, presenters, and anyone who needs big-screen impact on the go.
In our testing, motion handling was a pleasant surprise, with smooth sports playback and none of the dreaded soap opera effect. While color accuracy isn’t reference-grade and the built-in speaker lacks bass, the Splay’s rugged build, easy setup, and extreme portability outweigh those drawbacks for the right user. Whether you’re looking to elevate a trade show booth, bring entertainment to a tailgate, or create a pop-up training room, the Splay delivers a unique blend of convenience and performance.
